Research on the federally mandated alcohol warning label has found mixed results, but some findings are consistent with a modest influence on precautionary behaviors to reduce drinkers' self-reported drunk driving. We hypothesized that warnings would also influence the likelihood of intervening to deter other's driving after drinking. Using data from 1376 adult drinkers in a US national survey, a conceptual model reflecting effects of exposure to the label's drunk driving message on taking actions to avert another's driving under the influence was tested in a structural equation modeling framework. For males and females, in structural models with drinking and handling of alcoholic beverages potentially affecting both message recall and intervening, the predicted relationships were found between message recall and actions to deter another's drinking driving. This finding suggests that an important preventive effect of the alcohol warning label may be to legitimate collateral's attempts to avert another's drunk driving.
对联邦政府强制要求的酒精警示标签的研究结果喜忧参半，但一些研究结果表明，该标签对预防行为有一定影响，可减少饮酒者自我报告的酒后驾车行为。我们假设，这些警示也会影响在他人酒后驾车时进行干预以阻止其驾驶的可能性。利用美国一项全国性调查中1376名成年饮酒者的数据，在结构方程建模框架下，对一个概念模型进行了测试，该模型反映了接触标签中酒后驾车信息对采取行动避免他人酒后驾车的影响。对于男性和女性，在饮酒和处理酒精饮料可能会影响信息回忆和干预行为的结构模型中，发现信息回忆与阻止他人酒后驾车的行动之间存在预测关系。这一发现表明，酒精警示标签的一个重要预防作用可能是使相关方试图避免他人酒后驾车的行为合法化。
